Live Discussion on Vet Professional Ergonomics?
How's your neck today?
Stiff? Tight? A little sore by the end of your shift? Or have you just accepted that as "part of the job?" 👎 It doesn't have to be. Long hours looking down. Dentistry. Surgery. Charting. Microscopes. Patient restraint. Reaching into kennels. Those positions add up. That's why I'm building the next resource in The Veterinary Athlete Series: Neck & Upper Back Reset Inside, I'll share a few of the strategies I use most often with veterinary professionals to help: • Reduce neck tension • Improve posture • Build strength where it matters • Move better throughout the workday • Create a neck that's more resilient to the demands of veterinary medicine No fluff. Just practical strategies you can start using immediately. If you'd like me to send it to you when it's released, join The Durable Vet Brief today. JOIN What other guides would be helpful for you?

I'm glad you are here @Jessica Montour! The great news about the body is that it is adaptable and resilient. We just need to stimulate it, rest it, and fuel it in the right way. And be patient, it doesn't change overnight.

The Durable Vet Brief - Are You Signed-Up?
Twice per month I email a unique and usable recourse for the vet team. You can JOIN HERE to receive access. Here's some of what you missed in the last edition (join now and you'll still get this guide). ===== Your hands are performance tools. Veterinary professionals rely on an extraordinary combination of: • Precision • Grip strength • Pinch strength • Endurance • Rotational control Whether you're performing surgery, placing catheters, handling instruments, restraining patients, or managing countless repetitive tasks, your hands and forearms absorb thousands of repetitions every week. Yet very few veterinary professionals intentionally train these tissues. That's a missed opportunity. Because durability isn't simply about avoiding injury. It's about preserving: ✓ Strength ✓ Confidence ✓ Performance ✓ Career longevity The stronger and more resilient your tissues become, the less demanding many clinical tasks begin to feel. ===== The average veterinary professional spends years developing clinical skills and almost no time developing the physical durability needed to support those skills. The Durable Vet Brief was created to change that.
